Murakami vs. LV



When well-respected graphic designer Takashi Murakami collaborated with Louis Vuitton, the fashion/arts community was sent a buzz. Mostly known for his seamless combination of pop culture and high art, Murakami creates sculpture, wallpapers, paintings, large-scale instillations and film. Previously Murakami has worked with Kanye West, Kirsten Dunst, MOMO, MOCA (in LA), and droves of other high art venue.

The result: Jovial, Kid-Robot reminiscent prints that give Grandma's staple LV print a kick in the pants. Of course, these bags cost upwards of 5000 dollars…but a girl can dream ;-)
